Coco Palms Resort, Historic resort in Wailua, Hawaii.

The property spans 35 acres along Kuhio Highway at Wailua Beach, featuring concrete structures surrounded by palm trees and tropical vegetation.

The land belonged to Hawaiian royalty until 1866, when ownership disputes began following the petition to revoke Kealiiahonui's will by Junius Kaae.

The resort introduced Hawaiian wedding ceremonies and torch lighting rituals that influenced hospitality practices across numerous Hawaiian hotels.

The property remains closed since 1992 due to Hurricane Iniki damage, with current ownership seeking $22 million for potential sale.

Elvis Presley filmed scenes for the movie Blue Hawaii at this location, contributing to its recognition as a National Historic Place.
